Coach Education Programme Winter 2018/Spring 2019

We are delighted to be running a variety of GAA Foundation and Award 1 Coaching courses in the coming months across the County. This is an ideal time of year to either begin your coaching journey or to take the next step to gain more knowledge on the area of coaching. The courses are very user friendly with practical advice and techniques for getting the most out of your time with your players.


Foundation Courses: These courses are aimed at coaches with limited or no experience of coaching in the GAA and is a mandatory requirement for every coach to have in order to be involved with a GAA team. They involve attending three sessions and are priced at €20, payable by the individual or by their club.

Courses are available for coaches at Child (5-12 yrs), Youth (12-18 yrs) and Adult (18+) levels.
